Shadow Song

[Verse 1: Richard Davies] Did your shadow ever speak to you? And did he say that something's wrong? Only a figure on a lamplit wall Never realised he cared at all Did he stop you going on? [Verse 2: Richard Davies & Roger Hodgson] Guess my shadow spoke to me tonight And made me throw my dreams away Told a story of a twisted man Who was playing with some foolish plan About a girl who'd have her way [Chorus: Richard Davies & Roger Hodgson] Sometimes shadows are near I see things very clear My life unwinds Somewhere I'll make my stand Look 'round at yesterday And change my mind [Verse 3: Richard Davies & Roger Hodgson] Now your shadow isn't always there In the light of cloudy day Or in circles where you hide from view All the doubts that ever bothered you And where people lose your name
